Book Description:
|
Based on previously unavailable archival sources, this book examines the least understood phase of Stalin's rule through the despot's relations with his closest colleagues. While seemingly petty and unpredictable, Gorlizki and Khlevniuk argue that Stalin's behaviour was consistant with his broader goals.
